Spam Fights Back in Hawaii

Posted on March 8, 2004 by glasscastle

People
eat more Spam in Hawaii then in any other US state and it’s been the
popular since it was first introduced during the Second World War.

But now a rival brand, Tulip from Denmark, is trying to unseat it as undisputed
king of canned luncheon meats.

The special edition cans feature a picture of a hula doll on both sides
and have been made the feature of special 6ft displays in local grocery
stores.

Meanwhile, local McDonald’s restaurants in Hawaii have rolled out Spam
McGriddles as a new breakfast offering for islanders.

    Whoa is this true?

    Your story on Ananova points to an unrelated one on the NY Times.

    Is this some kind of test?

    Of course its true! Would the Dowbrigade lie to its readers? (retorical question). The link in the headline was correct, just forgot to change the one at the foot of the article. Thanks for the Head’s Up!
